Know God More Deeply
The first phrase of our parish mission statement is to "Love God." To love God, we need to "know God" more deeply. Participating in faith formation is a great way to develop a deeper relationship with God and to be involved in the life of the parish.
Awakening Faith
is a program for all Catholics but especially those who are considering returning to or developing a more active practice of their Catholic faith. For more information on
Awakening Faith
and to learn how you too can Know God More Deeply, check out this week's
bulletin
.
The next sessions of
Awakening Faith
start Wednesday, September 20 in the Parish Library from 7:00 to 8:30 PM.

Come ROLL with us! Join this year’s ROLL Bike Ride and Parade to start off an afternoon of fun, food and friendship! Pedal in the 6 or 16 mile bike rides or stroll around the block in the parade. The choice is yours at this year’s Summer’s End Festival! Feel free to decorate your bike and yourself!
The 6 and 16 mile ROLL begins after the Blessing of the Bikes by Fr. John Kerns. Next, a Lake Oswego motorcycle officer will follow the ROLL riders to get the parade started. Parishioner Greg Lang will cruise along in his T-Bucket. Parade participants will take up the caboose and cheer the riders on!
Parade participants are encouraged to skate, stroll, slide, or sweep down the street! Decorate wagons and trikes with the kids. Dust off those roller skates, get the baby-buggy ready, grab your ribbon twirls and let’s have a parade!
